Get the long and short of it (plus the wide, narrow and in-between) as you explore the basics of your serger. Understand different seams and when to use them: examples include flatlock, overlock, rolled edge. Create a reference notebook of samples as you learn to form the various stitches. A perfect class for “lapsed” or first-time serger owners.
